Good message and the people who can make the biggest difference are the parents. Most parents don’t believe this. We know because when we tell them their child can do Ironman, marathons, public speaker and be independent, they say yes you but not my child. Parents need to believe

Always amazed meeting amazing and generous people like @AprilAncira who support and promote inclusion for ID community. We may be a little slower but we can do more than people realize. Many of my friends with DS and autism are doing triathlons, Ironmans and marathons.
